Let’s get straight into it …

Today I’m continuing on from where I left off in yesterday’s post. We were focusing on the importance of building a relationship with your subscribers. Our next three tips are about how much contact is enough, and when does it become too much.
So here we go …
How often should you send out an email to your list?
There are only 2 ways I know of to increase the effectiveness and profitability of your email subscriber list or e-zine: (1) add more subscribers, and (2) increase responsiveness.
But it’s not an “either/or” situation. It’s not a case of “pick which one you want to do”. In fact, the same principles that will increase the responsiveness of your list will also increase the number of people on your list.
How? Because you increase responsiveness primarily through one thing … relationship. People like to buy from people. From people they trust. Especially from a trusted friend.
That same relationship that helps people to buy, also keeps them from unsubscribing.
What a depressing title for a blog post!
But did you know that untold people sign up as a Clickbank affiliate, work very hard to sell products and then are never paid their commissions?
Now let me be quick to say that this is NOT because Clickbank are some unscrupulous and crooked company that are stealing from affiliates. Neither are their vendors. The simple problem is in Clickbank’s Accounting Policy; specifically in the Customer Distribution Requirement. Here’s what it says (the following is the current policy wording on the Clickbank web site as of today’s date):
The best piece of advice I was ever given was that I should study what successful people are doing and copy them. More specifically, find out what they are doing that others AREN’T. In other words, what sets them apart from the crowd.
Here are five things I’ve observed that we all may already know. But successful marketers don’t just “know” these things, they DO them …
I wrote to the good folks on my list in the past few days and called this brand new product “The Perfect Storm”. The coming together of two “forces of nature” … PLR Products and Mr. John Thornhill. Awesome!
Here’s the low down:
Private Label Rights products in a nut shell are yours to own, edit, sell, resell, grant resale rights to and more. Basically you are the author of the product without necessarily writing or creating a thing. (But this is where a lot of people go wrong! … There’s a simple art to using them … Read on …)
Drumroll please!

I myself struggled to make progress building a list with any kind of speed until I discovered JV Giveaway Events. They have been the single best tool I’ve found to grow subscriber base.
You’ve heard of “The Pareto Principle”, otherwise known as the 80/20 rule? It applies to affiliate marketing in the following way: 20 percent of affiliates generate 80 percent of all affiliate income.
Which side of the 80/20 equation do you want to be on? The 80% of marketers who produce small or no returns? Or the elite 20% who cash in? If you want to be the latter, you’d better learn what sets this group apart. The following list of affiliate marketing best practices is a good place to start:
